I had the hot no-start on my 5.0 with carb and Duraspark ignition.  I thought it was a fuel issue until I was on a bash trip and Glen Buzek happened to be there.  He felt the (Accel) coil and his is remark was... Damn that's hot!   I replaced the coil with a cheap Autozone replacement and never had another issue.  Yours does sound like a fuel issue, but I would say to at least feel the coil if it's not starting

Franklin is about 15 or 20 minutes south of Nashville. We hosted in 2013, but are now 9 hours east. We still have family in Franklin and hopefully we can be there for the Bash. Look forward to seeing everyone again!

Dang, I just realized this is two years in a row for me to not have a road trip!
Maybe I can cruise up to Austin and meet up with you guys.

That would be great!

Well Coffee is being offered on the East Side of Dallas Thursday morning. Nos681 we already have a couple staying in the guest bedroom but I have a neighbor who has volunteered his spare room to a Basher. Or our couch?

 

Thanks Mochaman, I’ll take ya up on the offer.

Either option is fine with me.

Pencil me in for your wonderful coffee too.

Mochaman's PM brew is good too. Hint.. it ain't coffee

That completed 5.0 is now on the swap meet forum for $2,950

Seems like a fair price.  That's pretty much the same setup as in my 66 and not too far off from what I spent.

I have the 4106 and it did seem a little tall. I cut so the top hole became the bottom hole and drilled a new top hole. Seems normal now

I would fuse the +12 lead with a small fuse.  I had a cheap adjustable regulator short and burn some wiring.    The regulator I have now is:  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00C0KL1OM.  It works great so far.

This was definitely a great bash this year.  We left at 5:45am and made it home in 11.5 hours. Traffic was actually not too bad.

Chevy,
I am so glad to hear you made it home safe and sound. Did the toe correction help?

I do believe we have a new nickname in the making!
 

The toe correction made all the difference on the trip back.   No problems at 80+
jeeze.. I wear a clean U.S.A. t-shirt and now I gotta change my handle.   That's ok.. I'll answer to anything

I gotta say... you're safer running the pink wire.  You risk burning up the module using 12v straight to the coil.  Of course, the bashes aren't as fun without a breakdown or two.

Lori and I made it to Franklin TN around 7:30 last night with very little rain.  Today would not have been a good travel day.  As Doyle said.. short, but sweet! It was great seeing everyone again.  Safe travels everyone!
